EDIT: Studiomax is not rendering it properly. The model is there, but most of it appears transparent... i've not imported .dxf files before. Is this look normal? How do i fix it so it will render normally and i can change materials and maps etc?

It's a problem with the "normals", flip them, align them or assign them to both sides of the surface.

I've managed to open the DXF of the previous mini that was available,
does anyone have a version that is solid? I'd like to open it with inventor and modify it
and creat custom parts. :D
